What Does It Take to Get In?

I honestly think having Bouknight will push us in this year if we’re on the bubble. Money will be down because of lack of attendance and the metrics are all off this year. People will tune in to watch Bouk play. He’s a household name among those that pay attention to college basketball. People will want to watch the lottery pick and the NCAA will want to draw eyes any way they can.

Maybe I’m wrong, but that’s how I’m thinking to stay optimistic.
 
G'town will be a handful so we better be ready. They are up on the Hall right now.
 
We have to do whatever it takes to make the NCAAs this season. We have a tourney team with Bouk but we need to win at least 3 of the 4 games. If not then it will be very disappointing . I do believe they will accomplish that.
 
GTown beat Hall DePaul beat St. John’s. This league is a crapshoot every nite.
 
I think you’ll get in with 3 wins and one in BET. That puts you at like 10-3 or something with the team as currently constituted. How many bubble teams can make that kind of claim? I think that will play well in the consideration.
 
9 seed as of today by Jerry Palm


The most accurate "braketologist" over the last five years is Bracketville. Has us as a 12 seed.

 
.-.
If we win out the rest of the regular season except for Seton Hall then we'll probably have to win two games in the BET to avoid sweating on Selection Sunday. If we win all 4 of our remaining games then we're probably in regardless of what happens in the BET, but one win would pretty much lock it up. Lose any of the three Georgetown/Marquette games and we're going to definitely have to do some work in the BET.
 
Just as an FYI according to Kenpom projections we have a ~15% chance to win out.

I don't disagree with that premise, but in that scenario there is a good chance we are in that 4/5 game against either Seton Hall or Xavier. If we win that game on a neutral floor, I think we would be in.
